Eddie really shines on this one and the guitar tone is great. The “I can’t stand it, cause it’s no way to live” vocal part is incredible coming out of that break. I’m loving this song.

he sounds so good on the outro, and there is one point you can make the right call to back off a high note he probably couldnt hit

I like how light on its feet this one is. Nimble and breezy.

This one continues to burrow into my brain. Great song for a drive.

Fleetwood Mac meets In Hiding meets The Who.

This is pure joy.

I’m not in love with this one as a whole yet but that final minute is glorious.

this song has the best-sounding drums, by far

put this snare on all the other songs and they get another star (5 star songs become 6)

how did that happen?

The song is fooling you into thinking "Is this going to be Just Breathe 2.0?" with the intro hehe

There is some Into The Wild DNA on some of the songs of the album including this one

This one I was expecting to be different from what it is. Took me a few listens to get into it, but it wasn't really difficult with that hooky chorus and the fantastic outro. Those Ed screams at the end are worth the price of admission alone. 4.5 stars.
Pearl Jam is the only band I'll spend money on.

This one could be improved the most with better production. The bridge is just too noisy.

this one starts off sounding like it could be a Wilco song. the plinking of keys during the outro is my favorite.

Best use of old fashioned piano keys in modern PJ for sure! The guitar in that outro is fantastic as well!
